A Briefe Introduction to Geography

"A Briefe Introduction to Geography" by William Pemble is a 17th-century educational book designed to introduce young students to the world of geography. The book systematically covers the Earth’s features, characteristics, and different regions to make it easy to understand. Pemble divides geography into studying particular locations and studying regions, explains that the Earth is round, and describes the different types of lands and waters, like continents and oceans. The book also presents the important imaginary lines on Earth, such as the equator, and how they help with maps and sailing, using logic and pictures to explain the size, shape, and zones of the Earth. The main goal is to give students a detailed introduction to geography.
